How to Wear a Leather Skirt: 5 Styles to Try

The leather skirt is a bold, but versatile choice. This winter we will see many models, different from each other: you can find mini skirt, pencil skirt, pleated, midi… I have chosen a particular one: a short black skirt, tight on the sides and with a flounce ruffle effect which gives a romantic touch. I paired it with a jacketwith leather sleeves and inserts in bouclé wool on the collar and waistband. I got it at home, with the skirt, in a beautiful white box with a pink bow, with the certainty that, if something wouldn’t have convinced me I could return the garments totally free. This because I bought the entire look on Ventifive, a low cost e-commerce I spoke recently about HERE, that I discovered in the fall of last year and on which I often return. I particularly like Ventifive clothes because they are all high quality and entirely Made in Italy. A surplus is that they’re sold at significantly reduced prices: directly producing and selling its products exclusively online, Ventifive saves us a lot, jumping those intermediate steps that would lead to an increase in spending. As I said, I often browse through the products because the catalog is constantly updated with the latest news available!

Speaking about leather skirts, if well matched, it can be exploited to create a number of different styles: from the rocker look, to the more feminine ones, from professional day occasion to the most sexy evening looks. That’s my tips on how to style a leather skirt in 5 different ways.

A leather pencil skirt is particularly suitable tocreatea work outfit: just combine it with simple pieces such as a white blouse, a dark blazer and a lace-up or a pair of décolleté shoes, and you’ll be trendy and professional at the same time (if you are searching for advices on what to wear to the office, I recently wrote a post: you can find it HERE).

The leather skirt is perfect for casual day outfit: take a mini skirt, add a plain or printed white t-shirt along with a denim or tartan shirt, and/or a sweatshirt or a sweater. For shoes, a pair of sneakers or ankle boots, and you are good to go.

For a romantic look, prefer a pleated model and match it with a top with transparencies or lace, in pastel colors. A pair of boots with heels and a mini shoulder bag will make the perfect outfit for an elegant evening.

For a rock look, try wearing leather on leather as I did in the look you see in the pictures, matching a skirt with a leather jacket, a turtleneck or a shirt, all strictly black. Add a pair of biker boots or a heeled ones, for a tough but polished look.

In the colder months just add some extra pieces and you can safely wear your leather skirt outside. A turtleneck or a big sweater, a pair of opaque tights, cuissardes or high boots, and of course a beautiful long and warm coat.

I hope my tips will be useful! Thank you for your comments!
Happy Monday to all of you!
